i mean....unless you have a pretty old phone or dropped your phone in the ocean its kind of not a thing anymore. Every decent phone can withstand water for quite awhile.

The point is that putting a wet device in rice will dry it out, but it will also pull all the starch from the rice and potentially into your phone, causing more problems than it would fix. Silica packets are always the way forward.

You’re not supposed to shake vigorously. Lol. If it’s just sitting there, no starch should make its way into your phone, save for just a little at the port openings… MAYBE. Stop making up boogeymen.
